How much does SEO cost in Australia?

SEO in Australia is usually charged monthly, and agency retainers commonly range from about $1,000 to $5,000 a month.

How long does SEO take to work?

Google says SEO usually takes four months to a year to show results, from when changes are made to when the benefit appears. MarketingOnWeb's clients typically see technical fixes and quick wins in the first two to three months, and steadier ranking and enquiry growth from around months four to six.

How do I choose the best SEO company?

Choose an SEO company that publishes its price, explains exactly what it does each month, lets you own your accounts, doesn't lock you into a long contract and never guarantees first place on Google. Ask for real examples and a sample report. MarketingOnWeb meets every one of these and shows a real ChatGPT result.

Questions people ask about search & visibility

What do SEO services include?+

MarketingOnWeb's SEO services include a technical audit and monthly crawl, keyword research, page titles and content improvements, internal linking, Google Business Profile and local listings, backlinks from relevant Australian sites, AEO and GEO for AI search, and a monthly report and call, all for $990 a month + GST.

How much should a small business spend on SEO?+

Many Australian small businesses spend between $1,000 and $3,000 a month on SEO with an agency. MarketingOnWeb keeps it simple with one flat $990 a month + GST package, month to month, so a small business can start without a large commitment.

Can you guarantee first page on Google?+

No honest SEO company can guarantee rankings, because Google decides them and changes its systems often. Google itself warns against anyone who guarantees a number one ranking. MarketingOnWeb shows you every month what changed: rankings, traffic, enquiries and AI visibility.

Is SEO still worth it with AI search?+

Yes. AI answers in Google and ChatGPT draw heavily on pages that already rank well, so SEO is now the foundation for AI visibility too. MarketingOnWeb includes AEO and GEO in the same $990 a month SEO package for that reason.

Do you lock clients into contracts?+

No. MarketingOnWeb's SEO runs month to month. We'd rather keep clients because the results are worth it. You own your website, Google Analytics, Search Console and Google Business Profile, so you keep everything if you leave.

What's the difference between local SEO and SEO?+

Local SEO focuses on showing up in Google Maps and searches with a place, like 'plumber Geelong', using your Google Business Profile, reviews and local pages. General SEO covers all searches. MarketingOnWeb's $990 a month package includes both.

Will SEO bring me leads or just traffic?+

Good SEO targets searches from people ready to buy, then makes sure the page turns visits into calls and forms. MarketingOnWeb tracks enquiries in Google Analytics, not just traffic, and reports them monthly so you can judge SEO on leads.

Do you do SEO for businesses outside Melbourne?+

Yes. MarketingOnWeb is based in Melbourne and does SEO for businesses across Australia, mostly by phone and video. Local SEO is done for the suburbs and towns each business actually serves.
